The people behind the pieces – meet Chloe, one of our Founders/Directors (left) and Charlie, our Operations Manager (right).
As the title suggests, Chloe has been part of the company from the very start. She is a Yorkshire lass, and after spending some time in America and South Wales for work, she thought there was no better place to start the business than home. Two words to describe Chloe are hands on! She does the majority of our stock buying, and what an eye she has, as well as a lot of our minor restoration, light upholstery and repairs and has recently become our in-house photographer. She loves to be in and amongst the products and always has a hundred new ideas.
Charlie’s job is to bring Chloe’s ideas to life – she organises us, keeps us straight and boy does she love a process! She has been with the business on and off since 2018, and with Karen stepping away to retire this year, has come back on board full time. Originally from the south coast, she has had a varied career working in fashion, property, artisan food and a successful spell running her own business. After living in London and York, she has settled in rural North Yorkshire.
As with all businesses, but especially small businesses, the people are the most important part! Our team are amazing and try their hands at anything and everything; one day they are copywriters, the next furniture restorers, the next couriers…who knows what they will be next!
